CYTISUS battandieri, MOROCCO BROOM, (814). Although classed as a Cytisus this should 
hardly be called a “Broom”’. In habit it is more like a Laburnum with very silvery leaves, but the 
rich golden flowers are borne in dense, erect, spike-like clusters. Grows rapidly and will probably 
make a tree of medium size. Worth planting for the beauty of its foliage alone. A. M. R. H. S. 
and later received the rare F. C. C. R. H. S. and also their Award of Garden Merit. Balled 8-10 
ft. $3.50, 6-8 ft. $3.00; pot grown 2-3 ft. 75c. 
*CYTISUS ardoini, (7). A true alpine dwarf. Grows only a few inches tall but considerably 
wider. Bears a mass of rich golden yellow flowers. Rare, highly esteemed and a gem for the rock 
garden. Pot grown 4-6 in. 60c. . 
CYTISUS kewensis, KEW BROOM, (6). A hybrid between C. ardoini and the White Portugal 
Broom, C. multiflorus. We quote an enthusiastic English writer: “Had Kew no other claim to 
fame than the production of this one shrub it would be enough to perpetuate her memory for so 
long as there are gardens and gardeners. Foaming sunshine is the only metaphor to indicate its 
beauty when in flower. Only a matter of twelve inches in height, it will cover an area of twenty- 
five feet or so, but much more superbly displayed when draping a bold rock or dry wall.’ Surely 
we could not hope to add anything to this vivid description. A. M. R. H. S. Pot grown 6-8 in. 
75c; ‘‘standards” on three ft. stem, gallon cans $1.25. 
DAPHNE. An important specialty with us. For kinds and prices see Part it. 
EUCALYPTUS, (all 914). The following are only shrubs or very small trees making them suit- 
able for gardens of small or medium size. Brought into this country only recently, these are still 
quite rare but on account of their beauty and limited proportions will probably become very 
popular. So far demand has exceeded supply. 
E. caesia. Small tree; grows to only 12 or 15 ft. tall bearing beautiful pink flowers. Pot 
grown 2-3 ft. 75c, 1132 ft. 60c. 
*E. crucis. Small tree to 15 or 18 ft. Foliage silvery, flowers golden yellow. Pot grown 
114-2 ft. 60c. 
*E. eremophylla. Attains about 18 to 20 ft. Flowers golden yellow. 
E. grossa. Makes a large shrub about 10 ft. tall with dark glossy-green leaves. The 
golden-yellow flowers are borne freely. In Australia called Phillips River Gum. Pot 
grown 1-114 ft. 75c. 
*E. nutans. A low rounded shrub to about 6 ft. not at all tree-like. Flowers bright red. 
Pot grown 114-2 ft. $1.00. 
*E. steedmanni. Small tree to 18 or 20 ft. The creamy yellow flowers are borne in a red 
cup. Pot grown 114-2 ft. 75c. 
*E. stricklandi. Small spreading tree bearing deep golden yellow flowers. Pot grown 
2-21 ft. $1.00, 114-2 ft. 75c, 1-114 ft. 60c. 
E. torquata. Rather vigorous grower but making only a small tree with usual type of 
foliage. Flowers of good size, red overlaid with gold in an orange colored cup. It is un- 
usually precocious and blooms in extreme profusion even when very small. The flowers 
have the scent of a freshly sliced apple. Gallon cans 2-3 ft. $1.25; pot grown 2-3 ft. 75c, 
114-2 ft. 60c. 
EUCRYPHIA glutinosa (E. pinnatifolia), (7). It is a pleasure to be able to offer this beautiful 
Chilean shrub. It is one of the semi-evergreens; in cold climates its handsome pinnate foliage as- 
sumes autumnal tints and drops off but here it is practically evergreen. The large white almond 
scented flowers are formed like those of Hypericum and appear during summer. Will not tolerate 
limey soils, requiring about as much natural or artificial acidity as Azaleas and Rhododendrons. 
Pot grown 8-12 in. $1.50, 6-8 in. $1.25. 
*EUCRYPHIA intermedia (E. rostrevor), (814). Developed in England as a hybrid between E. 
glutinosa and E. billardieri. Like many hybrids it far surpasses its parents in rate of growth so 
quickly makes a small tree or large shrub with very attractive foliage and bearing a profusion of 
typically formed white flowers. Probably requires soil naturally or artificially acid. Pot grown 
S-l2 in ls/O. 
*GENISTA aethnensis, MT. ETNA BROOM, (9). While we have never seen this in bloom, the 
descriptions, comments and illustrations in the English garden books and magazines make us 
think it must certainly be very fine there—and we hope it will prove equally so here. Makes an 
erect shrub of good size, branches leafless like Spanish Broom but much more slender. The fra- 
grant flowers are golden yellow. F. C. C. R. H. S. Pot grown 1-11 ft. 60c.
